Yes! Your bottles and cans will continued to be recycled if put into the blue recycling curbside cart. They are taken to the City of Napa’s Recycling and Composting Facility where they are sorted out, bailed and then sent off to be recycled into new products. Napa Recycling’s curbside program also accepts non-CRV containers like glass wine bottles and other empty plastic bottles (like condiments or shampoo bottles). Note: if they are in your landfill cart, they will not be recycled.

Recycling is always a better option than landfilling it (as long as it is recyclable – when in doubt, find out!). Bottles and cans are some of the easier and better materials to recycle with a huge energy, natural resources, and cost savings. Recycling one aluminum saves enough energy to power a computer for three hours, while plastic bottles can be recycled into clothes, insulation, and more!
